Synopsis
The Crucible - A Screenplay
$15.99
Published by Methuen
This is the first-ever adaptation of Arthur Miller's twentieth
century classic for the big screen. Set in the 17th century, it
famously mirrors the communist "witch-hunts" of McCarthyism in 1950s America
A fascinating and disturbing dramatisation of the collective psychology of persecution it shows all too painfully how even a close-knit rural community can be desolated once doubt and suspicion take hold
